The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 12, is seeking to procure a Cost Per Test (CPT) contract for electrophoresis and immunofixation testing equipment for clinical laboratories at two locations: Clement Zablocki VA Medical Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Edward Hines, Jr. VA Hospital in Hines, Illinois. This procurement falls under NAICS code 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC code 6640 (Laboratory Equipment and Supplies), indicating the focus on specialized medical laboratory instrumentation. The solicitation number is 36C25226Q0070, and the contracting office is located at 115 South 84th Street, Suite 101, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53214-1476. Responses must be submitted by November 25, 2025, at 12:00 Central Time, with a 60-day archive period following the response deadline. While the presolicitation notice does not detail specific evaluation criteria or technical requirements, interested vendors should prepare to demonstrate capability in providing electrophoresis and immunofixation testing equipment and services tailored to VA clinical laboratory operations.

This procurement carries no set-aside designations, meaning it is open to all eligible vendors regardless of size or business classification. The presolicitation notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers, nor does it specify anticipated award values, budget ranges, or specific quantities of equipment required. The notice also does not provide detailed timelines for equipment delivery, installation, or service commencement, suggesting these details will be included in the formal solicitation document. Interested parties should monitor the VA's contracting office for the full solicitation release, which typically follows a presolicitation notice within several weeks, to obtain comprehensive specifications, technical requirements, and pricing instructions for submitting competitive proposals.
